The Making of Dreamland Page 08…
Dad’s back in the hospital. Kids have colds. Still hundreds of emails left to reply to. Shipments to ship out. Hollywood issues. And so much more.
But you know what? Life is really good!
I love what I do. Family will get better (health wise). Money will come in. Emails will get replied to. Shipments will go out.
I have 15 books coming out this year. 15!!
I’m halfway through the Dreamland series. And I’m going to enjoy this time.
I hope you all appreciate all you have and enjoy NOW. Enjoy this time.
Life’s short and it’s easy to feel sorry for yourself when it all piles up.
Find something you love and just appreciate it.
I’m doing that with family (first) and then Dreamland. One day…I’ll be done with it. I want to enjoy it despite all the horrid things going on right now.
I hope you guys can do that too. I hope Dreamland can in some way help. It still makes me smile.
I guess that’s all I can hope for. Right?
🙂
Thanks as always for sticking by during this time. And thanks for all the emails and comments. I hope you have a wonderful week and enjoy the rest of the making of pages.

The good news is my long weekend here just got longer.
The bad news is it’s because I’m not going to work because I have to see about my car after my son ran it into the trees in the front yard today. (He’s okay….as far as the crash goes.)
Still, that’s a good point about enjoying what you can when you can – because there will be plenty of times when what’s happening is NOT fun at all.
Being able to spend time with teddy bears, rock giants, cat girls, and all the other wonders of Dreamland is one of those things that helps make the other things bearable.
Thanks, Scott
Wow those images are amazing pieces of art. Ive had experience in CAD design but nothing comes close to the imagination and detail im seeing there.
ah, scott – Dreamland will come to one final conclusion, of course. But the wonderful thing is, you can always go back. Although, I have to admit – for I’ve written one big book (I’m still in the writing stuff) – I know that bereavement one feels when the last line is done, the last period is set. But that’s how stories work, can’t help it.
Best wishes to your dad. May the gods bless him and restore his health. may you spend more happy days together under the sun. and yes – enjoy the NOW and HERE! 🙂
Hi
First thing: Your webcomic is the greatest. First thing I do every morning when I get to work is to check the new page.
Second thing: With such great characters and buildings it should be used in a computer game or something similar. The buildings are really cool and it is a bit sad that you can only see them in such small scale.
In a year or two I’m certain I’ll use dreamland as goodnight story for my son.
Cheers from Denmark
Scott, you’re amazing. Not too many people can go through what you’re doing and come out on top like you are. You’re ‘more than a conqueror’!
God Bless

scott,
this is one of the best web comics i’ve seen in a long time and that’s saying something since i read in excess of 20 web comics at any given time. if you guys manage to make a movie or whatever let me know because i’ll definitely want to see it. don’t have the money now but i’ll definitely buy comic book 1, 2, et cetera when i can afford to.
sincerely,
wesley

ps forgot to mention that i hope to see more from you in the future. 🙂
I’ve always loved the backgrounds…they’re so imaginative and pretty. ^_^
I’m glad you’re happy with your life–that’s the way it should be. Take the good with the bad but concentrate mainly on the good. 😀 (I enjoy every day.)
That was touching…
thank you
I wish I had your outlook on life.
Hold on! You do a good work and that is amazing.
You do a great work. I hope your father and your children get well soon.
@ elflord: yea it’s really cool he already got something of rights to make a movie of it …
a game would be nice too for all the kids around the world. I’m going to follow Digital Arts & Entertainment ^^ I can use this thing later to make games or to go in the film world to make special effects and stuff it’s really cool, so yea definitely make a game too, Scott!!
Scott, you are incredibly inspiring. With all the stress, deadlines, and troubles in your life, you still manage to turn it into something positive, not only for yourself, but for all of us as well. 🙂
Prayers for your dad and family (and you, of course!) are on the way!
Gotta agree with you, Scott! It’s important to keep one’s priorities straight!
Those environments are amazing! He truly is a talented artist! I’m really enjoying these ‘making of’ pages!
Hope your dad and sons get well soon. They are in my prayers.
I continue to enjoy the making of pages and anxiously await the return of the actual story line…when you get around to it. While I would be totally excited if the story pages returned tomorrow, I also have no problem waiting . I also appreciate how…erm appreciative (thesaurus anyone?) you are of us readers. That’s a major factor that keeps me coming back every day. Thanks for all you do and best wishes for your dad.
When you said you hope Dreamland can help, well it does for me. I started reading it at the end of my junior year in high school. Now I’m a freshman in college and I’ve always read it at home, but now I’m here in another place STILL reading it. I appreciate all that you have done with this comic and will continue to read 🙂
I need the floorplan of that archway house… so building that.
Looks like stefano is a morrowind fan.
I’m so glad you did decide to rewrite issue two to send him back into the teddy bear city — they’re such cute little guys, and that annoying one at the end was hilarious!
Sorry, not to mention the beautiful scenery! (Wasn’t that implied? 🙂 )
I tried single handedly making a town ( and still am) so I know how time-consuming it is.
Keep up the good work.
